Compiling Crafty in Slackware64 13

Has anyone managed to compile the chess engine crafty? This is what I get when I try:

You need libnuma for AMD64 arch:
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool....3.orig.tar.gz
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool....0.3-1.diff.gz

You may also find helpful fixes in the debain patch for crafty itself as crafty has pretty sloppy sources:
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool...2.10-4.diff.gz

Well I installed the libnuma but it still won't compile.

I do not know what I am supposed to do with the patch files.

Did you install numa manually -I mean using 'make install'? If so, you'd need to run ldconfig afterwards to register the new libs in ld.so.cache.

I see that you use crafty-23.0 and not the latest crafty-23.1.
About libnuma there's an numactl-2.0.4-rc1 but i don't know if that version works any better.

Now i haven't tried compiling but i would start with the latest version.

No I used src2pkg and installed the tgz.

I have now got crafty-22.1 compiled. 23.0 and 23.1 both give the same error.
